Yes. I have some idea of how to fix them, though I need to get my hands
one to fiddle with a little more, I will try to it later tonight or
tomorrow. I have one question:
In the freeBSD the equivalent of a total reset appears to issued in the
EL3WINDOW(0) (well, they use XL_SEL_WIN(0)), whereas in the 3c59x driver
it is issued in EL3WINDOW(4). It seems to me that that may make no
difference or it may be very significant (IE, maybe a reset is allowed
from all memory windows?). Thanks
